10 Wrestling Books That Proved Seriously Controversial

As previously stated, the success of Mick Foley's first written effort led to a public clamouring for more memoirs from active wrestlers. So, who better to detail the events of their life than the silver-tongued most electrifying man in sports entertainment?
